THE INTERVIEW WITH GOD
I dreamed I had an interview with God. |
|
“So you would like to interview me?” God
asked. “If you have the time” I said. God
smiled. “My time is eternity.” “What questions do you
have in mind for me?” What surprises you most
about humankind?”

God answered... “That they
get bored with childhood, they rush to grow up, and
then long to be children again.”
|
“That they
lose their health to make money... and then lose
their money to restore their health.”
“That by
thinking anxiously about the future, they forget the
present, such that they live in neither the
present nor the future.”

"That they live as if
they will never die, and die as though they had
never lived.”
God’s hand took mine and we were
silent for a while.
And then I asked... “As a
parent, what are some of life’s lessons you want
your children to learn?”
|
“To learn they cannot make anyone love them. All they can do is let themselves be loved.”

“To learn that it is not
good to compare themselves to others.”
“To
learn to forgive by practicing
forgiveness.”
“To learn that it only takes a few
seconds to open profound wounds in those they love,
and it can take many years to heal them.”
|
|
|
“To learn that a rich person is not one who
has the most, but is one who needs the
least.”

“To learn that there are people who
love them dearly, but simply have not yet learned
how to express or show their feelings.”
“To
learn that two people can look at the same thing
and see it differently.”
|
“To learn that it is
not enough that they forgive one another, but they
must also forgive themselves.”

"Thank you for
your time," I said humbly.
"Is there anything
else you would like your children to
know?"
God smiled and said,
“Just know that I
am here... always.”
